Actual Rope Break

This one is easy. A turn to final is a normal operating procedure not an emergency like a rope break recovery. There's no justification for practicing low turns to final. Here I think I would disagree with you. In a number of land out situations (small fields) turning final at lower than 200ft would be preferable as it would increase the chance of safely landing in the field. I don't follow you. How does a low turn increase the chance of landing safely? Wouldn't a standard sized pattern with a higher turn followed by a longer final approach work as well?
